Rating: Summary: FAT people: faithful, available & teachable (from the book) Review: Youth Leaving the Church was divided into several different aspects of why they are leaving and how to prevent it. It is filled with quotes, endnotes and scriptures from several different books in the Bible. Dr. Henderson brings up a point from the Bible that makes a good point if it works. "Train up a child in the way he should go and when he is old he will not depart from it"There are many reasons given throughout this book, one of them that rings true to me and my situation was my parents never forced upon my attending church, like, my studies in school or respecting my elders. I wonder would I be more likely to venture into church more than I do now, if my parents had given me reason to go. The author also references how parents encourage children to entertain themselves with toys before prayer. It's sad to think there's a possibility that this might be true. What influences do children have to encourage them to go to church? Youth Leaving the Church is a book for parents, teachers, and anyone who wants to help create greater values and a higher love of the lord within our youth. Reviewed by Missy
